Title: BBM Teen Paperboy NPC Replacement
Post by: watts459 on July 15, 2006, 06:50:35 pm
This was a request from scratch. It is a replacement mesh of the paperboy NPC outfit. The mesh is located in the mesh thread.

Here is a tutorial by wireless guy on how to perminently change the look of your sims. http://www.gaysimsclub2.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=4281 (http://www.gaysimsclub2.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=4281)
 
I've added some screenies to show the differences between the paperboys. From left to right Maxis, BBM, BBB Teen, BBB Adult.

I tried to use npc replacer to use this mesh for the paperboy but it threw up an error "TXMT file not found", not to sure what that means... i'm going to try and move my downloads around a bit and try again.... I did download the mesh and the outfit... Thanks again!

tried again, npc replacer still says "TXMT not found" but i'll force it to try anyway and see what happens.

Sorry scratch, I have no idea how the program works. What I did was this.
 
In CAS make your paperboy teen the way you want him to look. You will need an adult in the family so I just made the mailman using Marvine and Beos mailman mesh which may have been created by bobrunlille. I'm not sure and I just spent an hour looking for the mesh without any luck. You could do new gardeners, baristas, maids etc too. Then follow this tutorial to replace them in simpe sims surgery. If you take your time it is easier than your might think. http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=74939 (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=74939)
 
Once the sims are changed I delete the NPC family before entering the neighborhood, but you may want to wait and see if the surgery took first.

I do replace all NPCs by just using whatever I like in my game. The clothing is not important at all because the game places Work Clothes in all NPCs no matter what casual they are wearing.
Would you mind to tell me what is different in your paperboy? For me they look very similar (but of course my eyes are as older as me :lol:  :)

I changed the shoulders, arms, chest, back, waist, and legs to match the BBM Teen. I will do a screenie Of three together later so you can see the difference between them.

Ended up doing four paperboys together as the BBB mesh works for multiple ages. I put them at the top of the thread.

Was Derek Vijayaker fired for being too skinny, or did he just work out a lot over the summer?
